20140100782 | GUIDED MANEUVERING OF A MINING VEHICLE TO A TARGET DESTINATION - A navigation device and a method for navigation are disclosed. A display is provided and a processor is connected to the display. The processor is configured to communicate with a database. The database stores information describing a plurality of objects in a mining environment. The processor is configured to identify a heavy equipment in the database, and identify a loading envelope for the heavy equipment. The loading envelope is at least partially determined by a location of the heavy equipment. The processor is configured to display the loading envelope on the display. | 04-10-2014 |

20100031235 | Resource Double Lookup Framework - A system and method for localizing software having resource references and a resource library. A record of all resource calls performed by the software is generated. New resources are added to the resource library, and instructions are included, that map individual resource calls to resources in the resource library. | 02-04-2010 |
20090096637 | Distributed Mine Management System - A distributed mine management system contains a central computer having a first database controlled by a first controller. At least one mobile computer is in communication with a piece of mobile equipment. Each of the mobile computers has a second database controlled by a second controller. The mobile computers store high, medium and low priority data about the status of the mobile equipment in the second database according to the priority of the information. The mine management system includes a remote worksite computer and an intermittent communication path between the remote worksite computer and the central computer. A wireless communication network enables communication between the first controller and the second controller, wherein said mobile computer is operable independent of the first logic unit. | 04-16-2009 |
20090062971 | Method and System for GPS Based Navigation and Hazard Avoidance in a Mining Environment - A system and method for GPS based navigation and hazard avoidance in a mining environment are described. The system includes a central application that has a dynamic roadmap definition module adapted to at least allow a user to arbitrarily define features in a geographical information systems database and import overhead imaging data corresponding to a geographical area in which said features are defined. The central application includes a remote position and attitude reception module adapted to at least receive data concerning the position of at least one remote vehicle, a transceiver module adapted for exchanging data with at least one remote vehicle; and a logging and tracking module adapted for at least logging said position of at least one remote vehicle over time. The system also has a remote application; and a communications link adapted for exchanging data between the central application and the remote application. | 03-05-2009 |
20090051608 | Combination Omnidirectional Antenna and GPS Antenna for Rugged Applications - A mast that includes an omnidirectional antenna disposed therein and a GPS antenna coupled with the mast. Both the omnidirectional antenna and the GPS antenna preferably are protected from the environment, with the omnidirectional antenna being located above the GPS antenna when the mast is positioned vertically. | 02-26-2009 |
